I have about 15 done, many from my bee mates, and have to do 30 more to get it to size. I also have an EPP hexy quilt I am making for my bed. One hexy flower down, how many to go??? lol. And I cut out about 115 6 1/2&quot; squares of different fabrics for the ultimate bed quilt. I need 224 and wanted to have very few repeats. It&#39;s going to be a while haha. The quilting on your quilt is divine :)Artsy-Craftsy Ivyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10884274247410617128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4719531042162379367.post-22099696720413878312012-05-26T02:48:12.952+02:002012-05-26T02:48:12.952+02:00You took the simplicity of a simple patchwork quil...You took the simplicity of a simple patchwork quilt and fancied it up with your beautiful hand quilting.

I&#39;m glad you linked us to the handquilting tutorial, since I hadn&#39;t seen it before. You have such a pretty voice! Do you think it matters what kind of paper you use? Would normal printer paper be good, or does it need to be something else? You said pattern paper, but I&#39;m not sure what that is. Is it freezer paper?Rachel Hauserhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08187626491695441387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4719531042162379367.post-27857582966292896242012-05-18T18:41:44.953+02:002012-05-18T18:41:44.953+02:00I love the handquilting on this so much!
